Well, aside from everything else... the flying is awesome! I absolutely love it. For me, it pretty much counters everything else. I get a lot of self satisfaction flying raw data departures, hand flying tight visual approaches and rolling her on the runway in gusty winds and low visibility. Every once in a while you get a really good compliment from a passenger. My favorite one was about a month and a half ago after greasing the landing on in MSP from an old lady as she was getting off. She asked me, "son, did you land the plane?", I said 'yes' and she said, "I have been flying for over 30 years several times a month and that was by far the best landing I have ever had." Things like that brighten your day and I will never forget that flight or her compliment.
